Make your own way

Of chance and destiny

I don’t know how long Medium will permit access but I’ll find ways on principle.

Destiny has no patience.
Armed with everything —
It knows when
You will surrender.
Willingly, you give up,
A white flag dangling
From an unsteady hand.

— Tre L. Loadholt

My response:

Destiny cannot control

our frail hearts and minds

Freedom knows

a way of coping

Even when we falter

choices will still beckon.

Our fears will take their stand
